Fun Facts

I began solo traveling in 2017. During a solo trip to Europe in 2018, I met my now boyfriend in Madrid. In between contracts we meet up for 3-5 weeks in different countries. Most recently, we lived together in Melbourne, Australia for 4 months.

Why do you love working for TotalMed?

TotalMed allows for me to continue solo traveling, while working as an operating room nurse. I now have the flexibility to live a life I love, without sacrificing my professional nursing career. Not only do I continually expand my cultural competence, but I constantly learn new skills and surgical services.
